World Cup Qualifiers: Broos is no nonsense and will take Bafana Bafana to Qatar – Mphela

The former South Africa striker praises the Belgian coach for the way he has transformed the team, insisting he will qualify them

Former Bafana Bafana forward Katlego Mphela has backed coach Hugo Broos to take South Africa to the 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar.

36-year-old Mphela, who managed 53 appearances for Bafana and scored 23 goals before hanging up his boots, believes Broos has already proven with his first two results in the qualifiers that he means business and should be given time to complete his mission.

'He knows what he wants to do'

“When I listen to him [Broos] and what I read, he sounds like someone who is clear about his work, he knows what he wants to do,” Mphela told Goal.
